Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a pull manufacturing process, production is driven by customer demand, which means that the production plan is created based on signals from customers that products or components are currently needed. This is in contrast to a push manufacturing process (choice B) where production is done in anticipation of future demand, and an MPS (choice A) and MRP (choice D), which both use a combination of push and pull techniques for planning and scheduling production.
